Carburizing treatments are the important way to developing fatigue strength and wear resistance. It is well known that the case depth is one of the most significant parameters determining fatigue strength. In this study, 3-point bending fatigue test was conducted to evaluate fatigue strength for the carburized depth with 18CrNiMo7-6 steel. As a result, fatigue strength increased with effective case depth decreased. It is shown that hardness in case hardened layer played principal role in the fatigue strength.

Analytical investigation of the fracture of inhomogeneous beam with two parallel lengthwise cracks is performed. The thickness of the beam varies continuously along the beam length. The beam is loaded in three-point bending. Two beam configurations with different lengths of the cracks are analyzed. The two cracks are located arbitrary along the thickness of the beam. Solutions to the strain energy release rate are derived assuming that the material has non-linear elastic mechanical behavior. Besides, the beam exhibits continuous material inhomogeneity along its thickness. The balance of the energy is analyzed in order to derive the strain energy release rate. Verifications of the solutions are carried-out by considering the complementary strain energy stored in the beam configurations. The influence of the continuous variation of the thickness along the beam length on the lengthwise fracture behavior is investigated. The dependence of the lengthwise fracture on the lengths of the two parallel cracks is also studied.

A coupled experimental and numerical study of shear fracture in the edge-notched beam specimens of quasi-brittle materials (concrete-like materials) are carried out using four point bending flexural tests. The crack initiation, propagation and breaking process of beam specimens are experimentally studied by producing the double inclined edge notches with different ligament angles in beams under four point bending. The effects of ligament angles on the shear fracturing path in the bridge areas of the double edge-notched beam specimens are studied. Moreover, the influence of the inclined edge notches on the shear-fracture behavior of double edge-notched beam specimens which represents a practical crack orientation is investigated. The same specimens are numerically simulated by an indirect boundary element method known as displacement discontinuity method. These numerical results are compared with the performed experimental results proving the accuracy and validity of the proposed study.

In this paper, the important novelty and the defining a physical phenomenon of the resent research is the development of nonlocal stress and strain parameters on the porous sandwich beam with functionally graded materials in the top and bottom face sheets.Also, various beam models including Euler-Bernoulli, Reddy and the generalized formulation of two-variable beam theories are obtained in this research. According to a nonlocal strain elasticity theory, the strain at a reference point in the body is dependent not only on the stress state at that point, but also on the stress state at all of the points throughout the body. Thus, the nonlocal stress-strain elasticity theory is defined that can be actual at micro/nano scales. It can be seen that the critical buckling load and transverse deflection of sandwich beam by considering both nonlocal stress-strain parameters is higher than the nonlocal stress parameter. On the other hands, it is noted that by considering the nonlocal stress-strain parameters simultaneously becomes the actual case.

Purpose : To understand the impact on the strength or restoration force by the change of heating temperature when soldering 18-8 stainless steel round wire which is the chrome-nickel class for dental orthodontic device production. Methods : The following conclusions were made upon the results from tensile strength test, 3 point bending test, and $90^{\circ}$ bending fatigue test with 24 samples that had been applied with condition 1 (before heat treatment - natural) and condition 2 (after heat treatment - mooring 30 seconds after heating up to $500^{\circ}C$, $700^{\circ}C$, and $900^{\circ}C$) to ${\phi}0.4mm$, ${\phi}0.7{\beta}mm$, 18-8 stainless steel round wire (spring hard) by Jinsung Company. Results : When it was heat-treated at $900^{\circ}C$, both ${\phi}0.4mm$ and ${\phi}0.7mm$ showed very low tensile strengths compared to the heat treated cases at $500^{\circ}C$ and $700^{\circ}C$ Yield strengths of both ${\phi}0.4mm$ and ${\phi}0.7mm$ showed very low compared to the heat treated cases at natural, $500^{\circ}C$, and $700^{\circ}C$, as well. Upon the results of 3 point bending test, the heat treated case at $900^{\circ}C$ showed very low in both ${\phi}0.4mm$ and ${\phi}0.7mm$, compared to the heat treated cases at natural, $500^{\circ}C$, and $700^{\circ}C$. Tensile strength of both ${\phi}0.4mm$ and ${\phi}0.7mm$ as well, showed very low compared to the heat treated cases at natural, $500^{\circ}C$, and $700^{\circ}C$. Upon the results of $90^{\circ}$ bending fatigue test, the heat treated case at $900^{\circ}C$ showed the highest wave node resistance in both ${\phi}0.4mm$ and ${\phi}0.7mm$. Conclusion : This study concluded that heating temperature change during wire soldering impacts on the characteristics of orthodntic wire.

3-D IC integration enables the smallest form factor and highest performance due to the shortest and most plentiful interconnects between chips. Direct metal bonding has several advantages over the solder-based bonding, including lower electrical resistivity, better electromigration resistance and more reduced interconnect RC delay, while high process temperature is one of the major bottlenecks of metal direct bonding because it can negatively influence device reliability and manufacturing yield. We performed quantitative analyses of the interfacial properties of Al-Al bonds with varying process parameters, bonding temperature, bonding time, and bonding environment. A 4-point bending method was used to measure the interfacial adhesion energy. The quantitative interfacial adhesion energy measured by a 4-point bending test shows 1.33, 2.25, and $6.44\;J/m^2$ for 400, 450, and $500^{\circ}C$, respectively, in a $N_2$ atmosphere. Increasing the bonding time from 1 to 4 hrs enhanced the interfacial fracture toughness while the effects of forming gas were negligible, which were correlated to the bonding interface analysis results. XPS depth analysis results on the delaminated interfaces showed that the relative area fraction of aluminum oxide to the pure aluminum phase near the bonding surfaces match well the variations of interfacial adhesion energies with bonding process conditions.

Unidirectional Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastics (CFRP) are advanced materials which combine the characteristics of the light weight, high stiffness and strength. For those reasons, the use of the unidirectional CFRP has increased in jet fighters, aerospace structures. However, unidirectional CFRP composites have a lot of problems, especially delamination, compared with traditional materials such as steels and aluminums, and so forth. Therefore, the interlaminar fracture toughness for a laminate CFRP composite is very important. In this study, The mode II interlaminar fracture toughness was measured by using center notched flexure(CNF) test specimen. The CNF specimens using unidirectional carbon prepreg were fabricated by a hot-press with the gage pressure and temperature controller. And three kinds of a/L ratio was applied to these specimens. Here, we discuss the relations of the crack growth and the mode II interlaminar fracture under the four point bending CNF test. From the results, we shows that mode II interlaminar was occurred when the more $a_0$/L ratio, the less load. And $G_{IIC}$ also were obtained as 5.33, 2.9 and $0.58kJ/m^2$ according to $a_0$/L ratio=0.2, 0.3 and 0.4.

Steel suspension members subjected to tension and bending offer an economical and efficient alternative for many structural problems. This paper is concerned with the elastic and elastic-plastic behaviour of suspension members with bending stiffness subjected to vertical point and uniformly distributed loads. An experimental study is described which focuses on the response of three suspension members with various T-shaped steel hot rolled sections and geometric configurations. The tests enable direct assessment of the influence of a key parameter such as the sag-to-span ratio on the response of suspension members. Detailed nonlinear finite-element models are generated to provide a tool for theoretical analyses and to facilitate further understanding of the behaviour. Results demonstrate that experimentally obtained responses can generally be closely predicted numerically because there are relatively good agreements between finite element and tests results. The results and observations of subsequent numerical parametric studies offer an insight into the key factors that govern the behaviour of suspension members with bending stiffness in the elastic-plastic range.

Sintered alumina ceramics were joined by 2 kinds of SiO$_2$-CaO-A1$_2$O$_3$ glass solders having a similar expansivity as alumina. Wetting of glass/alumina was examined by sessile drop method. The observation of interface and bending strength related to alumina/glass/alumina systems were investigated by means of SEM/EDX and 4-point bending test. the result are summarized as follow: (1) Wetting of glass solders on alumina was good at temperatures higher than 145$0^{\circ}C$. (2) When the joining temperature wan high, diffusion and/or reactions between solder md alumina took place at the interface. These diffusions and reactions occurring at the interface greatly affected the bending strength of joining body. (3) Highest strength corresponding to 80% that of alumina was obtained by the solder of 35SiO$_2$-35CaO-30A1$_2$O$_3$(wt%) glass.
